If You Fail to Plan...

Well you know the rest...

As many classrooms around the country are taking a break for the summer, it's time for teachers to reflect on the previous year and start planning for next year.

My science department is meeting this week (before we get into full vacay mode) to start planning for the new school year.  While many people are ready to flee the campus and not step foot into their classrooms until the fall, it really is a good time to do some reflecting on what worked and what didn't while it's still on your mind.  The only way to improve upon your craft and stay relevant is to constantly revisit and rethink what you do in the classroom and how you do it.  The lessons that were successful might be things you want to keep in your repertoire, while those that flopped, should be tossed or rethought.  

I am so pumped about the new Teacher Planners I've created this year.  While I use Planbook.com for a lot of my daily plans because it easily links to my class blog for my students, I still need to do my planning with paper and pencil.  These planners are all you will need!  I have 3 different design options to choose from, with each design offering many different options for layout, etc...  They are customizable, editable, and flexible in how you use them.  They are great for both primary and secondary teachers and don't break the wallet.  

What I love most about my planner is the ability to look at things from year to year and the planner provides a place for me to record feedback in real-time.  Not only does reflecting after a lesson make me a better teacher, but it also greatly reduces my work load for the next year.  

And the feedback has been great:

I am in the process of adding some features to my planners that were requested by buyers.  And as always, any additions or revisions are free to buyers.  Each year, I offer a re-fill planner to update the dated sections of the planner.
